Listen "still there? (early demo)"
Episode Synopsis
10 still there? (early demo)
February 2018: I was biking on my way back home passing the harbour by Refshalevej. There was snow all around. I stopped by, took the op-1 out and recorded the vocals for this song.
I still love pop songs. This one might be rearranged into something bigger at some point. But I also like it as a lo-fi sketch.

about the album:
Denmark, like most european countries, is currently on lockdown because of the COVID-19 pandemic. All this time indoors brought me to check into some archive recordings. Mostly, live-recordings and improvisations from my home studio in Refshaleøen, Copenhagen. The recordings span from early 2018 until a few days ago and most of them were never meant to be "pieces" or "tracks". Yet there is something appealing about them, just because of that. Here, you will find some possible ideas for future tracks, "live-remixes" of previously released tracks, improvisations and some bleep bloop just-testing stuff. Listening back to all this music, I can't honestly remember how I did half of it. It almost feels like someone else's music. I like that.
I hope you like it too.
